Basic settings

Allowance class

Here it is possible to assign a predefined allowance class to the element configuration.

Short code visible on header

Each element can be assigned a short code in a specific process element system in the header. This short code must be unique within the process element system. If the checkbox has been activated, the appropriate settings must be made in the "Prozessbausteinsysteme" tab. If the option is active, it is mandatory to enter a short code. The process element system identified in the "Process element systems" tab is displayed as corresponding process element systems by default. When saving the element, a check is performed to ensure the short code is unique within the process element system. If an error occurs, saving is not possible and an error message appears.

The "Short code visible on header" option cannot be deactivated if elements have been created with short codes in this element configuration. When deactivating the checkbox, a corresponding error message appears.

Note:

If you would like to save an element without entering a short code in an element configuration in which the "Short code visible on header" option is active, the process element system must be set to "NONE". Otherwise, it will not be possible to save the changes.

If MTM-1® has been selected as structural behavior in the Structure, additional options are available:

Assistant active

Indicates if the "Generate" and "Time-leveling" buttons are available in the ribbon. If the assistants are disabled, the brackets are manually put directly in the structure in the "Code" column.

Level of check

Depending on the drop-down list, the entries are checked when writing an MTM-1® analysis and saving is allowed or canceled (for details regarding the settings, see chapter "Prüfen").

MTM1_Pruefen_Level

Possible levels of check

Imperial system

If this option is active, analyses can be created on the basis of measuring units that are not metric (imperial). This results in different times of the MTM-1® values (based on the distance length) with identical codes (see example under "MTM-1®-Analyse").

Note:

If elements already exist at an element configuration, the option cannot be activated or deactivated. An error message appears when saving the data.
